TRUE...

"it would not stop the transfer of ownership of Eagle’s aircraft to AA, nor would it stop the transfer of Eagle’s flight operations to other feed operators. What it would require is that pursuant to Section 1 of our collective bargaining agreement, Eagle pilots and the Eagle contract would have to transfer with aircraft to the other feed operator. For example, if AA were to outsource some of Eagle’s current flying to Mesa Airlines, the number of Eagle pilots required to staff those aircraft and contract would go with the aircraft to Mesa Airlines and be employed at that carrier with a five year window during which they could elect to transfer back to Eagle. In the end, though, the flying would leave American Eagle. This grievance was about pilot jobs, not the transfer of assets."

Other aspect is, APA hasnt said anything about this yet. So wait for that to put a spin on things...
